Criticising those who criticise liberals for acting morally superior and not taking action to feel morally superior and not have to take action to feel morally superior and not have to take action

So scylly

My toddler insisted on putting pepper on her strawberries the other day.

I laughed and said she was welcome to try, but “start on just a couple slices so you don’t ruin all of them”.

She said it was great, but I didn’t believe her, so I tried it. And then we put pepper on all of them.

Oh boy. If you really wanna understand this, there are like 80 episodes of the podcast You Are Not So Smart that look at this from different angles.

There’s not really a single reason. It’s a lot of inter-related ones.

Join, pay, request chargeback from your card company.

When they dispute it: “The position clearly says unpaid. So I won’t pay.”

Use AI to expand this argument to 10 pages. Bonus points for citing nonexistent court decisions.

I used to have the same issue. Electric toothbrush helped. But I still wait anyway.

The extra time is spent mining $TRUMP

The real question is all the stuff beyond just having the distro installed. The packages, the services, the configs, the application data.

If you leave all that stuff the way it was installed via the old package manager, it may have some bad assumptions baked in and may be incompatible with packages you install with the new package manager.

And if you clear all of it out and reinstall it, have you really gained anything vs. just doing a clean install?

There’s a reason you have a home dir. Just copy that forward along with whatever other config files you might’ve customized.

Btw, if the ability to make drastic changes while still maintaining continuity is an important feature for you, maybe check out NixOS.

But… I don’t think that’s true, and yet it didn’t make me laugh.

It was an autocomplete from co-warlock.

No, not really. I didn’t downvote you btw.

Edited my original comment to avoid suggesting that.

toxic men

Kinda sad and ironic, that the term “toxic masculinity” began as a way to describe how culture manufactures a harmful concept of what it means to be a man, and it seeps into men and damages them like a toxin… but now we use it to mean that the man himself is toxic, undermining the whole notion of thinking of the problem as systemic rather than one of individuals.

Anyway, patriarchy is absolutely demolishing men right now, and the political right is saying “women’s fault” while the left is saying “lmao skill issue”. If we don’t get our shit together and start treating this seriously, we’re gonna have big problems.

It’s okay, Let’s Encrypt only provides SSL certs for… 63.7% of the market?

Okay okay, that is a lot. But what does a CA need funding for anyway? It doesn’t take much bandwidth to send out new certs.

The only thing that could be expensive is if they had to rapidly invalidate thousands of certs to protect the security of the entire internet.

But haha, that’s a pretty outlandish scenario that would never happen.

Fantastic post!

I just wanna emphasize that last part.

If you have persistent pain, and you’ve already checked the obvious stuff, you absolutely need to see a doctor. It’s not just about maximizing your fun. Chronic pelvic pain can indicate serious problems.

Way larger than I imagined, too. And yeah, I would also suspect they’re pretty messy and occassionally traumatic. But so are monogamous relationships.

I wouldn’t worry about eating your hat here. And also, I’m not digging the downvotes you’ve been catching. I think you presented a pretty reasonable take based on your own experience. That’s not the same experience everyone has, but that’s kinda the whole point of this thread, isn’t it?

Results show that 1 out of 6 people (16.8%) desire to engage in polyamory, and 1 out of 9 people (10.7%) have engaged in polyamory at some point during their life. Approximately 1 out of 15 people (6.5%) reported that they knew someone who has been or is currently engaged in polyamory.

Seems like it’s fairly common.

It’s as normal as dyeing your hair blue. It’s not the go-to for everybody, but if you go to the supermarket it’s right there on the shelf with all the other options.

Functionex: because a monad is just a monoid in the category of endofunctors.

My phone’s keyboard automatically does it — deal with it, nerd.

True… but you can sure enable one by not voting.
